Babylon 5: The Complete Series Is Coming to Blu-ray for the First Time

We’re living through a welcome Babylon 5 renaissance. Not only will there be a new animated feature available for purchase this August (though those heading to San Diego Comic-Con can catch an early screening), we’ll also be privy to a full Blu-ray set of the series before the end of the year.

In celebration of the show’s thirtieth anniversary, Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment (say that three times fast) is releasing the series on Blu-ray this December. All 110 episodes have been remastered in HD, and the set also includes Babylon 5‘s pilot movie, The Gathering.

Babylon 5 was created by J. Michael Straczynski, who is also the force behind the animated feature, Babylon 5: The Road Home, as well as the attempts to create a live-action reboot of the series in more recent years. While the fate of that live-action reboot is currently unknown, Straczynski has hinted that if The Road Home does well, we’ll likely see more animated features in the future. No matter what happens, however, it’s great to hear that we’ll be able to watch the original sci-fi episodes in full HD glory before 2024 descends upon us.

The set will be available December 5, 2023 at your favorite retailer and, in the U.S., will cost you $99.99 for 4,730 minutes of Babylon 5 goodness.
